Heavy or Light

Worksheet Description

Circle the objects that are heavier in the top 4 boxes. Mark the objects that are lighter in the bottom 4 boxes. This worksheet is a visual categorization activity titled “Heavy and Light,” where students are asked to identify objects based on their weight. The worksheet is divided into two sections; the top section contains images of a variety of objects, and students must circle the ones that are heavy. The bottom section requires students to circle the objects that are light. Each section presents several different items, such as a wardrobe, a key, a bicycle, and a tree, to help students discern between heavier and lighter items.

The worksheet is intended to teach students the basic concept of weight differentiation between objects. It encourages the recognition of physical properties by having students classify objects as heavy or light based on their understanding of the world around them. This activity helps students develop critical thinking skills related to comparison and categorization. Moreover, it lays the foundation for more advanced science concepts, such as mass and density, by beginning with these fundamental weight distinctions.
